And that’s just one example - warfare is always presented with a certain cool factor, despite the aforementioned attempts to convey its futility. It’s made clear early in the mission (Team Player) that we’re the good guys and we only shoot if the locals shoot first, and on each death you’re presented with a different philosophical quote – many of which are on the futility of war and lament the needless loss of life it causes.īut these attempts at moral grounding are juxtaposed against our pals shouting things like “Whoa, baby!” as huge buildings are levelled, presumably with collateral. Infinity Ward did try to add some nuance. Still, given recent real-world developments it was especially jarring to be fighting through dense urban areas from the off. This certainly speaks to the young, Western perspective I viewed it from at the time of my first playthrough, as the first mission in the campaign has you fighting in Afghanistan, where there was an ongoing conflict even at that time. When Modern Warfare 2 was published in 2009, war was a distant thing and therefore seemed fair ground for an entertainment product.

I’ve tried to play Call of Duty 4 multiple times in recent years and have never made it past the opening mission (Crew Expendable) because it feels too familiar, but I found MW2 was a distant enough memory that I was able to get into it and play through the campaign to see how well it stands up in the modern day. But while I played online sometimes, that wasn’t really the focal point of these games for me, and I spent more time playing through the campaigns and completing the Special Ops with my friends.Ī couple of weeks ago, while I was sat waiting for my annoyingly delayed Gran Turismo 7 delivery, I started flicking around my PS4’s menus and landed on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered.

This was one of the most popular series around at the time, mostly because of its famous online multiplayer. Between 20, I bought all the games pretty much on release. I have good memories of the Modern Warfare trilogy.
